The January Monthly Food Collection
About Feeding Our Neighbors
Feeding Our Neighbors is a united effort to fight hunger. This campaign is a response to Timothy Cardinal Dolan's
call that we all do our part to replenish the food pantries and soup kitchens in our community, which so many
families in our community rely on to survive. Sponsored by Catholic organizations throughout the Archdiocese of
New York and managed by Catholic Charities, 100% of contributions to the campaign will support local food
pantries that serve New Yorkers, non-Catholics and Catholics alike.
Organizational participants in Feeding Our Neighbors include all Archdiocesan Catholic schools, local parishes, the
Catholic Youth Organization (CYO), the Archdiocesan Office of Religious Education, and the Catholic Charities
Federation.
There is just one goal for Feeding Our Neighbors: That New Yorkers answer the call to feed those who are suffering
in our community
We would like to ask all parishioners to participate in an extra food collection in January. We will receive ‘nonperishable “foods on the 3rd weekend in January (January 16th & 17th) after the Masses in the High School
Cafeteria.
The recipient of the Food Campaign will go the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal as usual.
Please do NOT bring food items to the rectory.
Thank you
